Topp Construction (Brandon) is one of the most dishonest companies I have ever had the misfortune to work with. We paid them $1500 just to find out if our project was feasible or not.
We decided not to go w/them since they gave us an estimate that was almost $100,000 more than what we told them we could pay.
Months later we received a bill for $6700. As far as we can tell they did absolutely nothing (other than provide an estimate & give us some plans that they drew up that were duplicates of plans that we sent to them).
They took us to court & the judge ruled for them. We then discovered that one of Topp Constructions attorneys was a substitute judge for the same court where our hearing was held. In fact the judge hearing our case told some other people in the courtroom what a great substitute judge he was. I got the feeling that our case was decided before it was even started. Can you say coincidence? .....I think not.
The contract plainly stated that IF we agreed to go forward (which we did not) that they would bill us bi-weekly. After the initial $1500 we did not receive ANY bill from them until months later for $6700. Apparently the judge didn't seem to think that was a problem & did not hold Topp Construction accountable to that part of the contract.
We are not wealthy people & because of the dishonesty of Topp Construction (Brandon & John) we are now out almost $9000 w/absolutely nothing to show for it.
Hopefully others can hear of our experience & not go through the stress that we had to. We did NOT hire them, all we were asking for was whether the job was feasible or not.
I hope this review will prevent this from happening to anyone else. read more
